Laundromat Luxury Car

If you owned a $60,000 car, would you sit in a dirty laundromat weekly to do your laundry?There's a strange scenario I see almost everyday. People arrive at the laundromat next door and do their weekly laundry.....in luxury cars.

These are not people whose home machines are broken. They are not washing comforters or large items. These people are REGULARS. They schlep in laundry baskets full of dirty togs for the weekly wash. Same cars and same people everytime. Mercedes, BMW's, Cadillac Escalades, Lexus sedans pull up in front and the dirty clothes spill out.

If you can spend major money on a car.....can't you buy a washer/dryer or live someplace with a decent laundry room setup? Hmmm......I'd rather have a $30,000 car and do my laundry at home or in a clean laundry room at my apartment building. But that's just me.

It seems that the laundromat has become a luxury meeting place for them. Haha! Anyway, there’s no law in America that forbids anyone from doing their laundry in a laundromat. It’s okay to just let them do what they think is more convenient for them. As for me, I’m happy with my $30,000 car and laundry area at home, just like you. =)
